Default What happens if someone hacks into your online bank...

and steals a few hundred thousand dollars from you? Is there anyway that you could get your money back? Would you be insured? Obviously, you try to protect your password, but it sure as hell itsnt bullet proof!

I believe that US laws (covering US banks only) puts the burden on the bank. The costumer is liable only for a very small amt. Don't know what other countries do.

If the bank went broke you would get 90% upto 30k max of your money back from each account. In case of fraud most mainstream banks would see you right, I really wouldn't keep more than is absolutely necessary in Neteller if I was you. (UK)

This doesn't really answer your question. but I would seriously suggest getting a program like Password Safe and using randomly generated passwords. This is one thing I made sure to do as my bankroll increased over $10k. I couldn't imagine not doing something like this with a few hundred thousand. Of course you may already do so.
